Leaky foundation

[msbhammer]

Thanks for the input guys. When I built the garage, I stalled drains that went to a stone filled pit. I exstended the down spouts, and back filled around the foundation to push the water away.
Gonna try this new rubberized paint, that soaks into the block, to stop water from coming through the block into the crawl space. Might even drill holes into the first course and insert a small pvc line that will drain the water from the block and into the drain.

Looks like I'll be holding off on the front porch roof, until I take care of this
"Honey To Do Job".
Thanks guys. I'll keep you posted on what I do.

You should have bought a house built in 1820, that has a stone foundation which doesn't stop any water.

Oh wait that's my house.

It's great, I can go into the basement and collect bait.

Salamanders (black with orange line), snakes, slugs, everything that likes damp dark places.
